"Every single sighting was a magical experience that cannot be described but only experienced. It was a delight to explore the coastline of South Africa and see such beautiful towns doing activities such as kayaking and surfing."

Contiki's active New Zealand trip was amazing! The views were spectacular and everything was well organized. The activities were exciting and really showed off the wonders of the South Island.

What are the best national parks to visit?

The best national park to visit depends on what you’d like to see. Wanna check out wildlife? Then a hike in Cahuita National Park, Costa Rica (where you’ll see sloths IRL) or the Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda (to see Gorillas!) are great choices. Craving breathtaking views of mountains and waterfalls? Then Jasper National Park in Canada, or Plitvice National Park in Croatia are your best bet.

What are the easiest national park hikes?

Lots of national parks offer easy and accessible hikes. For example, lots of the viewpoints in the Grand Canyon National Park are just a short, flat walk from where you get dropped off. Travelling with Contiki means we’ll always make it as easy as possible so that all you need to worry about is putting one foot in front of another.

Plenty! There are over 6,000 national parks worldwide (covering over 6% of the world’s land surface). And guess what? We’ve got 44 trips that visit National Parks.

How much does it cost to visit a national park?

Lots of national parks charge entrance fees to contribute to the upkeep of the national park (and control how many people visit at any one time). So, the pricing can vary per season. But lucky for you, when you’re with us, your entrance fee is usually included in the trip cost!
